Yes, yonderpeasant
late marriage !?!! either that or a re-marriage but I can't find my gMother,
as a child, anywhere.
..and if John had a previous marriage, who with
![Huh ???](https://www.rootschat.com/forum/Smileys/classic/huh.gif)
there seem to be more than one John Bates in Rugeley
like in 1901, I see them at 6 pearl street, Walsall but it says a John P. Bates
altough on the birth certificate of my father (Adam), the (P) is not there.
So you can see that from where I am, it's quite difficult to see who's who and from where!!
my goal is to find any relative in the UK from one part and to find my ancestor on the other part and it ain't a picnic.
So if you can help or any body else, God bless you !
Tricia did some tremendous work (other subject,
1901 census search same page) maybe you can have a glimpse at it but the first marriage part is very confusing! (with Isabella !?!!)
many thanks,
Rob
